The Future, In Focus is News Corp's brand film: two minutes that begin at dawn in New York, London and Sydney, travel back to a first edition from 1785 and return to a shared horizon. Written, shot on two continents, and cut by RIOT.

In collaboration with WSJ Custom Content, RIOT crafted a dynamic sizzle reel titled "Beyond Your Imagination." This visual symphony captures years of iconic moments, showcasing the evolution of creative storytelling and the power of bespoke content.

A unique, fast-paced, cinematic, high-fashion-style film highlighting subject matter that is traditionally difficult to visualize.

The Iconic Age is RIOT's film for Cartier and WSJ Custom Content: the Santos de Cartier, the first modern wristwatch, set against the New York landmarks that rose in the same era. Shot in 8K and on 16mm, with archive from the New York Public Library and the Library of Congress.

We created a cinematic trailer for real-time data platform Aerospike that breaks the norms of a conventional corporate video.

Giving a masterclass on empathy, podcaster Dylan Marron, in collaboration with Lexus and WSJ Custom Content sat in front of the RIOT cameras in NYC during the pandemic. Dylan’s “Conversations with People Who Hate Me” podcast and social experiment features his conversations with people who have written negative comments to him online in the past. The experience from the shows and the conversations that followed gave Dylan a bank of knowledge on vulnerability, difficult conversations, and empathy. We shot, edited, and produced this long-form instructional class that dives into deep philosophical layers surrounding negative human interactions and delivers a light and positive visual experience for the viewer. The story is broken down into chapters with a mixture of “to camera” discussion, motion graphics, quirky custom hand-drawn animations, and a multitude of b-roll that was shot in different locations throughout. Our leadership session is one of the rare longer-form pieces of content in the RIOT catalog, and we’re super proud of this creation. We’re excited about future collaborations where we get to test ourselves in the longer-form visual content space further.
